/**
 * <b><u>TmfTimestamp</u></b>
 * <p>
 * The fundamental time reference in the TMF.
 * <p>
 * It provides a generic timestamp implementation in its most basic form:
 * <ul>
 * <li>timestamp = [value] * 10**[scale] +/- [precision]
 * </ul>
 * Where:
 * <ul>
 * <li>[value] is an unstructured integer value
 * <li>[scale] is the magnitude of the value wrt some application-specific
 * base unit (e.g. the second)
 * <li>[precision] indicates the error on the value (useful for comparing
 * timestamps in different scales). Default: 0.
 * </ul>
 * In short:
 * <ul>
 * </ul>
 * To allow synchronization of timestamps from different reference clocks,
 * there is a possibility to "adjust" the timestamp by changing its scale
 * (traces of different time scale) and/or by adding an offset to its value
 * (clock drift between traces).
 * <p>
 * Notice that the adjusted timestamp value could be negative e.g. for events
 * that occurred before t0 wrt the reference clock.
